Lonnie Mack - Acoustic Blues Guitar

Get to know and learn the phenomenal acoustic side of this blues guitar giant with this digitally enhanced classic Hot Licks video lesson. Right from the start, Lonnie teaches you a totally different approach than on his electric blues video. Fingerpicking is used almost exclusively as he teaches open tunings (including open G), droning bass patterns with lead on top, fills combined with chord work, slow fingerpicked blues pieces, piano-style chording, Delta-style blues, horn section-style parts, and much more. Most of all, you'll find the material is all presented in the kind of down-home, relaxed manner you'd expect from the great Lonnie Mack.
